The food fight has been an organized event every year since, minus a few years in the 1950s when it was banned. (In 1957, people protested by holding a funeral for a tomato.) It is now a major tourist attraction and the tickets this year sold out quickly. Below are the vibrant and action-packed photos from Tomatina. The images show people of all ages finding pure joy in pelting each other with tomatoes.
